Saw Madagascar on DVD this evening round Karen’s. I hadn’t actually seen it before, but had experienced a little taster when I went to see Wallace & Gromit. The film is quite light-hearted, with plenty of gags, a nice simple … Continue reading →

I spent a whole afternoon playing a game I haven’t played in ages! I’d managed to find Diplomacy going for £20 at Amazon and couldn’t resist. A number of us had become hard-core Risk players, so it seemed logical to … Continue reading →
